Abstract
A display apparatus includes a display that displays at least a first part of an image, a power supply that supplies power to the display apparatus and an input/output port that connects in parallel the power supply and another power supply of another display apparatus that displays at least a second part of the image.
Claims22
A display apparatus, comprising:
- a display configured to display a first part of an image;
- a power supply configured to supply power to the display apparatus;
- an input/output port configured to connect in parallel the power supply and another power supply of another display apparatus that displays a second part of the image, wherein the input/output port comprises a first terminal, which directly connects the power supply of the display apparatus with a second terminal of another input/output port of the other display apparatus;
- and
- a processor configured to, in response to detecting a failure of the other power supply of the other display apparatus, control the display to display a user interface for receiving an input selection regarding whether to reduce power consumption in the display apparatus based on a number of display apparatuses having defective power supply.
2 more elements
A controlling method of a display apparatus, the controlling method comprising:
- receiving power state information of another display apparatus, which is connected in parallel with the display apparatus;
- detecting a failure of another power supply of the other display apparatus based on the power state information that is received;
- and
- in response to detecting the failure of the other power supply of the other display apparatus, controlling a display of the display apparatus to display a user interface for receiving an input selection regarding whether to reduce power consumption in the display apparatus based on a number of display apparatuses having defective power supply,
- wherein the power state information of the other display apparatus is received through a first terminal of an input/output port of the display apparatus,
- wherein the first terminal directly connects with a second terminal of another input/output port of the other display apparatus, and
- wherein the second terminal directly connects to the other power supply of the other display apparatus.
4 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable recording medium including a program to execute a controlling method of a display apparatus, wherein the controlling method of the display apparatus comprises:
- receiving power state information of another display apparatus, which is connected in parallel with the display apparatus;
- detecting a failure of a another power supply of the other display apparatus based on the power state information that is received;
- and
- in response to detecting the failure of the other power supply of the other display apparatus, controlling a display of the display apparatus to display a user interface for receiving an input selection regarding whether to reduce power consumption in the display apparatus based on a number of display apparatuses having defective power supply,
- wherein the power state information of the other display apparatus is received through a first terminal of an input/output port of the display apparatus,
- wherein the first terminal directly connects with a second terminal of another input/output port of the other display apparatus, and
- wherein the second terminal directly connects to the other power supply of the other display apparatus.
4 more elements
A display system comprising:
- a plurality of display apparatus, wherein a first display apparatus, among the plurality of display apparatus, comprises:
- a display configured to display content;
- a first power supply configured to provide power to the display;
- a processor configured to control providing of power to a second display apparatus, in response to receiving information indicating that a second power supply of the second display apparatus is defective;
- and
- a first input/output port comprising a first terminal, which directly connects the first power supply of the first display apparatus with a second terminal of a second input/output port of the second display apparatus, the second terminal being directly connected to the second power supply of the second display apparatus,
- wherein the processor is further configured to, in response to detecting a failure of the second power supply of the second display apparatus, control the display to display a user interface for receiving an input selection regarding whether to reduce power consumption in the first display apparatus through the first power supply based on a number of display apparatuses having defective power supply.
